Tim Cullen (2nd Year) describes some of the events that took place in Stratford on World Book Day, including a 5 minute Drop Everything And Read time.
This year we had three different things for World Book Da
y. We had to fill out a survey about the last book we read, our favourite book in Primary School and our favourite fictional character. T
he results were put on the Library display boards and on the 2010-2011 Gallery on the school website.
At form time we had to Drop Everything And Read (D.E.A.R.) for five minutes.
At lunchtime The Rathgar Book shop came to the school with books for different age groups. There was a raffle for a free book and World Book Day tokens. (Click on thumbnails to open an enlarged version of photo.)
